Late preterm neonates have immature respiratory systems and higher incidence of respiratory distress syndrome compared with term neonates.With the increase rate of elective cesarean section world-wild,the association between elective cesarean section and late preterm neonates respiratory distress syndrome has attracted a huge attention.Clinical data have showed that the incidence of respiratory distress syndrome was significantly increased in late preterm neonates delivered by elective cesarean section.The delay of lung fluid movement dilutes the concentration of pulmonary surfactant and causes the alveolar collapse.Compared with early preterm neonates,the respiratory distress syndrome of late preterm neonates appears later with a worse reaction of pulmonary surfactant and higher incidence of complications.Thus,vaginal delivery of late preterm neonates is the optimal choice and early diagnosis and therapy of respiratory distress syndrome is very important.

OBJECTIVE:To provide suggestions for solving the problem of hospital pharmacy waiting time for medicine. METHODS:The definition and classification of the response time in hospital pharmacy dispensing process were introduced. The re-sponse time was considered to analyze the causes of waiting time for medicine in outpatient pharmacy and central pharmacy. The scheme for shortening the waiting time for medicine were put forward. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:The response time can be di-vided into 2 types,i.e. relative invariable and relative variable;the former results from hardware factor,system factor and other factors,and is relative stable and hardly changed;the latter results from that the speed of previous step is higher than that of next step,and can be changed by certain method,such as adjusting the proportion of manpower allocation,adjusting manpower tempo-rarily. Based on the concept of response time,the essence of waiting time for medicine can be understood accurately and deeply, and countermeasure can be found out fundamentally and used for other steps as prescribing prescription.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of sertraline combined with brain function treatment instrument for depressive episodes.Methods According to sequence of hospitalization,80 patients with depression without severe physical disease randomly divided into sertraline with brain function treatment group (40 cases,group A) and only take sertraline group (40 cases,group B),and two groups were given Sertraline 100 mg/day for 8 weeks.24 Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-24) and 20 Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS-20) were assessed before and after 1,2,4,6,8 weekend treatment.Results The scores of HAMD-24 and SDS-20 were not significant difference between the two groups before treatment(P＞0.05),but there were statistically significant after treatment (P＜0.05).They were significantly decreased after 8 weeks treatment in group A and were decreased slightly in group B with HAMD-24 and SDS-20.Clinical efficiencies of HAMD of the two groups were 87.2 ％,76.3 ％,respectively,and those of SDS were 89.7 ％,78.9 ％,respectively.Clinical efficacy in group A was significantly better than that in group B (P＜0.05).Conclusion Sertraline with brain function treatment instrument can shorten the onset time and improve its effect.

Objective To evaluate left ventricular (LV) remodeling and function after acute myocardial infarction (MI) in rats using speckle tracking imaging (STI). Methods The left anterior descending coronary was ligated to induce MI in twenty normal rats. One day after creation of MI, fifty survivals based on the diagnostic criteria of MI were divided into 4 groups as follows:pre-infarction, 1 day,4weeks,and 8 weeks after MI. Echocardiography was performed to evaluate the changes of left ventricularfunction in rats. M-mode and two-dimensional cross-sectional echocardiography data were acquired at the papillary muscle level and digitally stored for further analysis. Circumferential strain rate(SRcir) and radial strain rate(SRrad) indexes were measured by STI software for each animal. Results One day after MI,indexes of SRcir and SRrad in anterior and lateral segments were significantly decreased (P ＜0.01, for both). Four weeks after MI,compared with baseline,SRrad and SRcir were decreased in all segments ( P ＜0.01). Eight weeks after MI, however, SRrad and SRcir showed no significant difference compared with 4weeks group. Conclusions STI can correctly identify LV dysfunction in rats and can be used for serial assessment of cardiac remodeling in rats models.

A series of andrographolide derivatives with the structure of 12-N-substituted-14-deoxyandrographolide were synthesized from the parent compound andrographolide.Their antitumor activities were preliminarily evaluated on various cancer cell lines and compound 4d stood out due to its potent growth inhibitory effect in comparison with andrographolide.Compound 4d also demonstrated significant antitumor effect on human hepatoma HepG2cells in vitro and on sarcoma 180 (S180) and hepatoma 22(H22)-bearing mice in vivo.Then,the apoptosis induced by compound 4d in HepG2cells was detected by Annexin V/PI double staining assay.Further mechanic study showed that the expression of p53 and Bax was significantly elevated and that of Bcl-2was downregulated in 4d-treated HepG2cells.Collectively,these data suggested that compound 4d had remarkable antitumor effect both in vitro and in vivo and could effectively induce apoptosis via a p53-dependent pathway in HepG2 cells,thus deserving further investigation.

Objective To investigate the sniff nasal inspiratory pressure (SNIP) of Chinese boys. Methods 299 healthy boys aged 5-12 years were measured with SNIP. Their height, weight, and age were recorded. Results The SNIP averaged (76.9±22.6) cmH2O, and was (59.1±14.2) cmH2O, (76.9±19.5) cmH2O, (85.3±23.5) cmH2O and (83.0±22.6) cmH2O in the boys of 5-6 years old, 7-8 years old, 9-10 years old and 11-12 years old, respectively. It was significantly different among boys of 5-6 years old, 7-8 years old and 9-10 years old (P<0.05), but no significant difference between 9-10 years old and 11-12 years old (P=0.55). Regression analysis indicated significant relations of SNIP with age, height, weight and Body Mass Index (P<0.01). Conclusion The SNIP of Chinese healthy boys are different from abroad. It is necessary to establish the Chinese children SNIP reference range.

Objective To explore the requirement of on-site first-aid knowledge of sever hand in workers,and evaluate the corresponding training effect.Methods Through the questionnaire survey in 120 workers,making the sever hand on-site first-aid knowledge courseware,during the one-year training,we sent two teachers to give lectures,provided tools for workers to practice every week.At the end of training,we examined workers through the written and practical examination and made the statistical analysis.Results 97.5％ workers presented training needs,54.2％ workers had mastered sever hand onsite first-aid knowledge compared with that before training.Conclusions Workers have higher rates of accidents,however,there is lack of knowledge of first aid in general,and they have training requirement.We take the form of participative training and give the workers both theoretical and technique training,and this can effectively improve the awareness rate of on-site sever hand first-aid knowledge and technique.

Chromium is a harmful contaminant showing mutagenicity and carcinogenicity.Therefore,detection of chromium requires the development of low-cost and high-sensitivity sensors.Herein,blue-fluorescent carbon quantum dots were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method from alkali-soluble Poria cocos polysaccharide,which is green source,cheap and easy to obtain,and has no pharmacological ac-tivity due to low water solubility.These carbon quantum dots exhibit good fluorescence stability,water solubility,anti-interference and low cytotoxicity,and can be specifically combined with the detection of Cr(Ⅵ)to form a non-fluorescent complex that causes fluorescence quenching,so they can be used as a label-free nanosensor.High-sensitivity detection of Cr(Ⅵ)was achieved through internal filtering and static quenching effects.The fluorescence quenching degree of carbon dots fluorescent probe showed a good linear relationship with Cr(Ⅵ)concentration in the range of 1-100 μM.The linear equation was F0/F=0.9942+0.01472[Cr(Ⅵ)](R2=0.9922),and the detection limit can be as low as 0.25 μM(S/N=3),which has been successfully applied to Cr(Ⅵ)detection in actual water samples herein.

Objective:The occurrence of numerous tumors, particularly classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (CHL), is related with Ep-stein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. However, the incidence of CHL and its association with EBV varies significantly with ethnicity, geo-graphic location, sex, and age. This study investigated the association of EBV infection with CHL in Northern Chinese Han population. Methods:EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) was detected in 136 cases of CHL through in situ hybridization. Results:A total of 37 cas-es were EBER positive (28%). The mixed cellularity (MC) subtype had the highest positive EBER rate of 49%(23/47;P<0.001), fol-lowed by lymphocyte-rich subtype with 30%(3/10), nodular sclerosis (NS) subtype with 14%(10/73), and 1ymphocyte depletion with 0%(0/2). Our study identified a single age distribution in the third decade. Moreover, NS subtype showed an evident single peak in the third decade. However, MC subtype had a lower peak in the fifth decade. The incidence of EBER showed a bimodal age distribution with two peaks in the first and fifth decades (21.6%and 24.3%, respectively). Conclusion:CHL in Northern Chinese Han population was associated with EBV infection, particularly the MC subtype.

Objective To compare the prevalence and correlation factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in urban and rural areas in Minhang district of Shanghai through the social economic and clinical data of the elderly population.Methods Jiangchuan Street and Pujiang town were randomly selected to represent the urban and rural population in Minhang district of Shanghai,respectively.Based on the over-60-year old people health examination program,6151 objectives with complete clinical-epidemiological data and bio-chemical index were investigated.The prevalence of CKD in urban and rural areas was compared,and the correlation factors for the urban and rural CKD were evaluated by multiple logistic regression analysis.Results (1) The survey objectives with an average age of (69.57+7.04) years,including 4345 cases of the city residents and 1806 cases of rural residents,were enrolled.The age structures of urban and rural showed differences,population over 80 years old account for 13.1％ of the rural total,significantly higher than 7.4％ in the urban population (P ＜ 0.001).(2) The prevalence rates of diabetes,hyperuricemia,hyperlipidemia and hyperlipidemia in urban residents were higher than those in rural residents,which were 26.4％ vs 13.7％,9.9％ vs 2.3％,53.7％ vs 37.4％,51.4％ vs 15.6％ (all P＜ 0.01).The awareness rates of kidney disease and hyperlipidemia showed significant differences in urban and rural areas,which were 32.9％ vs 44.2％,84.6％ vs 62.8％ (all P ＜ 0.01).Compared with those in rural areas,the treatment rates of hypertension and high blood lipids in urban residents were increased (all P ＜ 0.01).(3) The prevalence of CKD was 23.4％.Female CKD prevalence was higher than male,respectively 26.3％ and 18.5％ (P ＜ 0.01).In urban CKD prevalence was 22.2％,lower than 25.2％ in rural.The prevalence rate of hematuria in urban areas was lower than in rural areas,but the prevalence rate of decline in renal function was higher (all P ＜ 0.05).With the increase of age,the prevalence rate of CKD was increased (P ＜ 0.01).(4) Age (OR=1.072),smoking history (OR=1.543),previous history of kidney disease (OR=1.351),diabetes (OR=1.373),hyperuricemia (OR=2.498),obesity (OR=1.364),history of interventional therapy (OR=1.896) had positive correlation with CKD in city elderly population,while the higher education (OR=0.676,OR=0.604) and drinking (OR=0.585) had negative correlation (all P ＜ 0.05).Age (OR=1.032),female (OR=1.860) had positive correlation with CKD in rural elderly population (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions CKD has been a common chronic progressive disease of the aged in Minhang district.The prevalence of CKD is higher in urban areas than in rural.Age is a common factor for CKD in urban and rural.Previous smoking,history of kidney disease,diabetes,hyperuricemia,obesity,history of interventional therapy,education and drinking have correlation with urban CKD patients.Female has correlation with rural CKD population.
